I tried a search on this and didn't find anything. I'm bipolar and was on depakote for a while, but couldn't put up with the weight gain and stopped taking it. I relocated to the city I lived in some time ago and my old pdoc told me I had no business being off meds, but I refused to take depakote and we're both leery of lithium and I was in a deep depression, etc., etc., so here I am on Wellbutrin for the time being. I like the weight loss (7 lbs in 2 weeks so far), but suddenly I'm starting to get this high pitched ringing in my ears. It doesn't sound this way all the time. Seems to happen in the early evening. But it's so annoying and LOUD it drives me crazy. The first time it happened I went running around the house, shutting off things I thought it might be. The computer, the TV, the ceiling fan. Then realized it was coming from inside my own head! Has anyone experienced this? And did it eventually go away??? Thanks.

Welcome Lorelai.
This site is a bit confusing at times. There are several different boards. This is Psycho-Psycho Babble, the board for discussion about therapy and psychology.
There is also a medication board, Psycho-Babble (one Psycho). You can get there from the links at the top of the page. Since your question was related to medications, I think you will receive more replies on Psycho-Babble. So I took the liberty of redirecting it there. The link below will bring you right there.

There is also another board Psycho-Social Babble for giving and receiving support and for just having fun. I hope you feel free to drop by that board too. :)

Dinah,
Thanks very much for the info! A first-timer and the first thing I do is post on the wrong board, lol. Appreciate your redirecting my post.
Best,
Lorelai
